Removing obstacles to communication
Communication is the essence of every human being. In this fast moving and competitive world, there is a demand on every human being to perform at his best to fulfil his personal, professional and social expectations. In this context, communication has assumed a new meaning. The ability to interact and communicate begins very early in life, beginning with the birth cry. It becomes more refined and sophisticated as one matures. However, there are conditions — both med
ical and otherwise — that hinder development of normal communication.
The All-India Institute of Speech and Hearing (AIISH) has been striving, over the past 41 years, to serve individuals with communication disorders across the country. The institute currently offers bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral and diploma programmes.
This year, the institute has introduced two new courses — Diploma in Hearing Language and Speech and Diploma in Training Young Hearing Impaired Children.
The Diploma in Hearing Language and Speech would be conducted through the distance mode.
The four study centres are Jawaharlal Institute of Postgraduate Medical Education and Research, Puducherry; Regional Institute of Medical Sciences, Imphal; Maulana Azad Medical College, New Delhi; and All-India Institute of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Mumbai.
